Regularly plays well above the rim and can dunk over almost anyone. An uncommon athlete for a 7-footer, with explosive leaping ability. His impressive wingspan helps him pile up rebounds and blocked shots. A hard worker in the paint, with a high motor.

Flaws:

Still needs a lot of work on his fundamental ball skills, especially free-throw shooting and passing. Doesn't have much of a perimeter game at all. Sometimes gets into foul trouble too easily and will let his intensity boil over.

Career Potential:

High-flying center with elite athleticism.

Clippers center DeAndre Jordan recorded his first 20-20 game of the 2014-2015 season.

Impact

Jordan had 22 points and 20 rebounds in the loss versus the Nets on Monday. Jordan had three games with 20 or more rebounds in December, but he fell short of 20 points. Jordan has grabbed at least 12 rebounds in 13 of the last 15 games.

Jordan also manged 1.0 steals per game, and as a result owners can target him late in the second round, or early in the third, at the latest.

He had a couple huge dunks late in this game and also just dominated on the glass. Jordan was leading all players in the postseason in contested rebounds per game and his timing was outstanding in pulling down boards this entire series. He averaged 15.1 boards per game in this series with 12.1 points, so coach Scott Brooks might have to figure out how to neutralize the big man in the next round.

He shot 8-of-10 from the field and 9-of-17 from the line for his highest scoring playoff game of his career. The Warriors were doing the Hack-A-Jordan down the stretch, but it didn't work with DJ going 6-of-8 in the fourth quarter. He became the first player since Tim Duncan in 2008 to have 25 points, 18 boards and four blocks in a playoff game. The Warriors not having Andrew Bogut definitely hurt them tonight and will have to go back to the drawing board before Thursday.

The Clippers didn't have it today and only had three offensive rebounds in the first three quarters. Jordan only attempted one shot from the field and didn't even get to the line in the loss. He did suffer a very minor injury in this game, but that probably doesn't explain the sub-par line. If something comes up about an injury, we'll pass that info along.

His 22 boards and five blocks matched franchise playoff records and he has been unbelievable in the paint this season. Jordan had a stretch of 22 consecutive games with at least 10 boards and one block this season, which is the second longest in NBA history behind Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's 24. Chris Paul and Blake Griffn get a ton of press, but Jordan's improved play has gone a long way to the Clippers' success.

Blake Griffin was mired in early foul trouble so Jordan barely left the court in the first half, and to his credit he knocked down a pair of critical free throws late in the game after being intentionally fouled.

DeAndre Jordan had 13 points, six rebounds, two steals and two blocks in Tuesday's win, and will be getting some votes for the Defensive Player of the Year Award.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

He was a pleasant fantasy surprise this season, but could take it easy on Wednesday night. The Clippers can get the No. 2 seed with a win and a Thunder loss, but OKC tips off at 8 p.m. ET in Detroit. If they're up big, or have already won when LAC tips off, the Clippers will literally have nothing to play for. And we're guessing Doc Rivers will give his big names a rest if that's the case, and possibly even if the Thunder lose.

"He's one of those guys that does have bangs and bruises and sprains," Rivers said. "He just keeps playing though them... He had a root canal one morning before practice and practiced the whole practice. It was great. He didn't talk a lot which was even better. He didn't complain once at the refs." DeAndre has truly blossomed under coach Doc Rivers, leading the league in total rebounds (1098) and sitting second in total blocks (201). That's pretty good for a guy that was drafted outside of the 10th round in most leagues.

It would be difficult to exaggerate how lopsided this game was -- suffice to say, the Clippers won by 45 points, and their 49-point lead after three quarters set a new franchise record. DeAndre's 43.6 percent FT shooting remains an anchor in roto leagues, but he's having a terrific season otherwise. He leads the NBA in rebounds (14.0 per game) and field goal percentage (65.3 percent), and he's fourth in blocks at 2.3 per game.

He had four quick dunks in the first quarter and finished making 8-of-11 from the field. On the other hand, Jordan missed all six attempts from the line, dropping his season free throw shooting to 40.3 percent. Outside of that issue, he leads the NBA in rebounding and field goal percentage while ranking third in blocks, so fantasy owners are loving the extra minutes in his breakout season.

He hit 6-of-10 shots and 2-of-3 free throws, and may have had a shot at a triple-double had the Clippers not been up by about 30 points for much of the game. None of his numbers were season highs, which tells you what kind of year he's having, and Jordan is particularly hot right now after going for 25-18-3 on Friday. The offense is still going to be shaky, along with the free throws, but Jordan appears to be looking for his shot again after scoring a total of just eight points in his final three games of December.

Jordan added two blocks to go with his two points and as odd as it is to say this game wasn't nearly as close as the score suggested. Jamal Crawford hit 4-of-13 shots for 15 points, two threes, one steal and one block, Chris Paul hit just 5-of-14 shots for 11 points and a below-standard line, and Blake Griffin hit just 5-of-15 shots for 15 points and a substandard line of his own as the Clippers hit just 36.5 percent of their shots in the loss.

He leads the NBA in field goal percentage, ranks third in rebounds per game, is fourth in blocks per game and adds 1.0 steals per game, so his owners probably aren't complaining about his 41 percent from the line. The increase to 35 minutes per game has worked wonders for Jordan's fantasy value and he's one of the best big men to own with free throw shooting taken out of the equation.

The Clippers were horrible in the second and third quarter with a combined 37 points in those two quarters. They only had 28 points in the paint, which is an area of strength based on the presence of Jordan, Blake Griffin and their league-leading 53 percent shooting from that range.

DeAndre Jordan had his big preseason carry over into the season opener against the Lakers on Tuesday, shooting 8-of-10 from the field for 17 points with 11 boards, one assist, three steals and three blocks in 35 minutes.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

He was arguably the best defensive player in the preseason and even blocked 19 shots in his first four preseason games. The minutes were also well above his 24.5 minutes per game from last season, and he also didn't play much in the fourth quarter. Coach Doc Rivers seems committed to Jordan on both ends, so he's a good bet to have a career year.

DeAndre Jordan kept his foot on the gas pedal in the Clippers' 110-100 preseason loss to the Kings, scoring 12 points on 6-of-8 shooting with nine rebounds and three blocks in just 19 minutes.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

Jordan has done about as good a job as anybody can do showing well in the preseason, but the true test of his value will be whether or not he can make enough free throws to stay on the court in the fourth quarter. He is 12-of-31 in that department on the preseason.

DeAndre Jordan hit 5-of-7 shots for 11 points, 11 rebounds and five more blocks in Tuesday's preseason win over the Suns.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

Jordan has had a fantastic preseason and it's starting to look like Doc Rivers is going to utilize him (properly) in the regular season, as well. We have been high on him in the past, but it's tough to overlook his preseason work. He looks like a great way to blow a late-round pick, especially if you need a big man in a two-center league. His free throws will stink, but it looks like he'll get enough consistent minutes from Rivers to be worth owning in all leagues.

It's been a fun preseason for Jordan thus far. He's a great option if you're in need of high-percentage points, rebounds and blocks, but he does so little else (while hurting you in FT percentage) that he wasn't even a top-175 player in eight-cat leagues last year.

He even made 4-of-5 from the line in the win. DJ had Robin Lopez's number and he completely controlled the paint in the first half. We've seen this movie before with Jordan, so take this line with a grain of salt. He's worked on his offensive game, but his issues at the line will keep him from being a strong fantasy asset.

DeAndre Jordan looks to change his offensive skill set to make him more viable late in games

Ben Bolch

Impact

"There's always some frustration," Jordan said of not playing late in games. With his late game inconsistency, and inability to make free throws, his frustration is understandable. He has attempted to diversify his offensive arsenal during the offseason, and his focus has remained on defense, but it remains to be seen if his late game minutes will increase, as there has been no mention from him about improving a miserable 38.6 free throw percentage. With solid numbers at the center position, he has value, but his issues at the line may make him a fantasy liability.

DeAndre Jordan working on FT technique | 08/21/2013 10:53 AM

News

DeAndre Jordan, who shot 38.6 percent from the FT line last season, has been working daily on his FT technique.

ESPN.com

Impact

Jordan changed his shooting mechanics last season and the results were dismal, so one would hope he's spending offseason hours improving his form. He was a late sixth-round fantasy value in 25 minutes per game last year, if you ignore FT percentage, and the arrival of new coach Doc Rivers mildly improves his season outlook.

It's unclear whether these talks were concurrent with Jordan's rumored trade to the Celtics. Wojnarowski notes that Jordan's current market value and the Blazers' interest in the athletic big man are both unclear at this point. The one thing that appears obvious is Jordan will continue to be at least a topic of discussion on the trade market this summer.

DeAndre Jordan trade talks dying down | 06/22/2013 2:26 PM

News

The trade involving the Celtics and Clippers for DeAndre Jordan has become a second priority for the two teams.

Boston Herald

Impact

The Clippers have shifted their focus to just getting Doc Rivers and seem unlikely to give up more than a first-round pick. The Celtics have been reportedly trying to get Eric Bledsoe, but since he remains one of the best backups in the NBA, the Clippers are justifiably unwilling to acquiesce. Jordan doesn't really create his own shot and isn't much of a stand-alone asset.

"They really want him," source told Ramona Shelburne of ESPN.com. This is contrary to an earlier report that Boston wants Eric Bledsoe in a trade. The news is flying around all over the place with this story and reports from the Orange County Register say the talks are "serious" and "very true." Jordan didn't make a strong impact in the playoffs, shooting just 45.5 percent from the field, which is way down from his season field goal shooting of 64.3 percent.

Coach K and Jerry Colangelo are putting together a who's-who of young, talented NBA players to help fill out the national team roster in the years to come. Jordan will join Cavs guard Kyrie Irving and Kings big man DeMarcus Cousins to name two. Jordan's numbers improved only slightly in his fifth season while he played nearly three less minutes per game.

"I don't know if crossroads is the right (word) but there's definitely a level you have to play at right now that is much different," Del Negro said. "He has a much different responsibility now. I haven't seen the consistently that I like." Jordan played 31 minutes in Game 5, his highest total of the series, but managed just six points on seven shots to pair with eight rebounds and two blocks. He hasn't scored over six points or grabbed more than eight rebounds in any game during the playoffs thus far.

DeAndre Jordan blew up for 16 points, 12 rebounds and three blocks in 36 minutes vs. Memphis, showing no signs of the minor knee injury he suffered on Friday.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

Tonight's performance was crucial, as it helped to expand the Clippers' narrow lead over Memphis for the No. 4 seed. Even if you ignore Jordan's 39 percent free throw shooting, however, his role doesn't lend itself to reliable value. He's playing just 24 minutes per game, enough to average a career-high 8.7 points on just 5.9 shot attempts per game, with 7.1 rebounds and 1.3 blocks. Those are low-end numbers which are unlikely to budge until his minutes increase.

He dropped his free throw shooting to 41.4 percent, but at least he's second in the league in field goal percentage. Jordan is in a timeshare with Lamar Odom (eight points, 10 boards and one steal in 16 minutes) and neither player deserves much consideration in standard leagues.

Jordan had some crazy highlight dunks, but simply isn't dominant enough in the middle to be an automatic fantasy starter. The Clips play just two games next week and then finish 3-4-3-3-2, which means Jordan can possibly be cut for a better option going forward in head-to-head playoff leagues.

Tonight was a nice bounce-back game for DJ, despite a lack of boards, but we'd like to see him do it again against the Pacers on Thursday. The good news for Jordan is that there's a decent chance that Roy Hibbert, and possibly David West, will be suspended for that game after Tuesday's altercation with the Warriors.

This tidbit from a Boston-area writer is meant to support the notion that the Clippers would part with Jordan in a deal for Kevin Garnett, which hasn't moved beyon the rumor stage, and there's no reason to give it much thought.

This was only the second time in the past month that Jordan has grabbed double-digit rebounds, and his big game on the glass is parly attributable to the absence of Blake Griffin (hamstring).

Jordan has been terrible this year at the charity stripe, making a career-low 42.2 percent of his career-high 3.5 attempts per game. That ugly combination makes him the second-worst player to own for free throw percentage. He's productive in rebounds and field goal percentage, so hopefully his owners are punting the category.
